Hanging out, Hooking up, and Celestial Marraige

This is a speech we read for our class by Bruce A. Chadrick at BYUs devotional. I thought this talk was really good and it explains a lot of what is going on here at BYU-I. At times i wish we could go back to those times when people court and go on actual dates. Now days the thing to do is to hang out instead of going out on dates. I don't think it is wrong to hangout with the opposite gender but there does need to be some dates. in the speech he talked about suggestions for the students. 1. Cinderellas and Prince Charming, throw away the glass slipper. this means that even when you are married to someone in the temple, Life is not going to be Happy fairytale ending. Marriage is work but so worth it. we need to be cautious of this and realize that it does take work and not look for someone who is perfect. 2. don't wait for others to carry a glass slipper to find you, in other words don't wait for God to drop off a Man/Woman on your front door steps. You have to be proactive and seek someone you like. this is easier said than done. We all know i get super shy when it comes to talking to guys that i like.
